Abstract

In this article perspectives are offered by an instructor, author, and researcher involved in the open textbook Humans R Social Media and resulting OEC (Open Educational Collection) developed at a large southwestern university. The iVoices OEC is described as the unplanned fruit of teaching in connection with Open Educational Practices (OEP). OECs in general are discussed as logical outcomes of pedagogical theories including open pedagogy in general, and the theories of Funds of Knowledge and Universal Design for Learning as well as user privacy protection strategies. Lessons learned are offered as recommendations for planning future OEPs and OECs including changes in memoranda language, budgeting for collection management assistance, and clearer partnerships with institutional repositories. This case study of an open textbook and accompanying OEC is offered to deepen understanding of open pedagogy in praxis.
